A Scalable and Secure Position-Based Routing Protocols for Ad-Hoc Networks

Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) is collection of self configuring, wireless, multi hop mobile nodes. This network lacks centralized routing capability as well as a fixed network infrastructure and topology. In order to communicate with each other these multi hop nodes themselves act as routers. As the nodes are mobile and due to lack of central server, the routing may become erroneous. Also due to dynamic nature of nodes the routing becomes a highly tedious task. In the literature several routing protocols have been proposed for mobile ad hoc networks and most prominent among them are DSR, AODV and TORA. But almost all of these protocols assume that the nodes in the MANET are always cooperative. However, these protocols protect MANET from all the possible attacks except non cooperative behavior. ARAN (Authenticated Routing for Adhoc Networks) is a solution proposed which provides security against all possible vulnerabilities but an authenticated selfish node can manipulate these protocols and can disturb the network by dropping packets or delaying the packet. These noncooperative nodes may in turn partition the network. In this paper we propose a credit based system that can be applied to routing protocol to detect selfish node and improve the network performance.

Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) has emerged as the self organized wire less interconnection for the various applications in random topology. As most of the multimedia applications require strict QoS guarantee during the communication between a single source and multiple destinations. How ever, achieving reliable multicast transmission in MANET is crucial due to the dynamic network topology caused by the node mobility. This gives rise to the need for an efficient multicast routing strategy. This paper proposes a novel scheme PBMRP-BR (position-based Multicast Routing Protocol for Ad-hoc Network Using Backpressure Restoration) for efficient transmission of multimedia applications in Ad-hoc Network, which provides priorities for routing based on Distance of path, Load at the node (ie, traffic) and queue length at the node(ie, bandwidth). It also keeps the path information including bandwidth resources of each node for routing decisions. The problem of the link failure in the channel during the call in progress thus lead in the degradation of the QoS (Quality of Service).To deal this we are using a Backpressure Technique The simulation results shows that the proposed algorithm is able to find a better solution, fast convergence speed and high reliability. The simulation results shows the proposed PBMRP-BR protocol achieve the above objectives and gives the batter results than previous schemes like DSR for the maintenance of overheads and the path reliability. Our proposed scheme will improve the bandwidth utilization by reducing the congestion in the Adhoc wireless network.

Problem statement: Network security in Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) is a major issue. Some of the attacks such as modification, impersonation, Time To Live (TTL) and sleep deprivation are due to misbehaviour of malicious nodes, which disrupts the transmission. Some of the existing security protocols such as ARAN, SAODV and SEAD are basically used to detect and eliminate one or two types of attacks. The major requirement of a secure protocol is to prevent and eliminate many attacks simultaneously which will make the MANETs more secured. Approach: We propose the algorithm that can prevent and also eliminate multiple attacks simultaneously, called MIST algorithm (Modification, Impersonation, Sleep deprivation and TTL attacks). This algorithm is written on Node Transition Probability (NTP) based protocol which provides maximum utilization of bandwidth during heavy traffic with less overhead. Thus this has been named MIST NTP. Results: The proposed MIST NTP has been compared with NTP without the MIST algorithm, Authenticated Routing for Ad hoc Networks (ARAN) and Ad hoc on Demand Distance Vector (AODV). Extensive packet level simulations show that MIST NTP produces around 10% less end to end delay than ARAN, it even drops 30% fewer packets compared to malicious NTP on an average and around 50-60% fewer packets compared to AODV during multiple attacks. Conclusion: The results ensure that MIST NTP can break the greatest security challenge prevailing in MANETs by securing the MANET against several attacks at once.

Mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) are self-configured and self-maintained network without any central authority. In MANET the route discovery from source node to destination node is a critical issue due to frequent changes in network topology and mobility of nodes. The MANET consists of problems such as load balancing, scalability, stability, reliability security and robustness. It is therefore necessary to check node stability with respect to node mobility and Bandwidth during path establishment. The Scalable Multipath On-demand Routing Protocol for Mobile Ad-hoc Network (SMORT) is suitable for Scalability only. The proposed protocol is an advanced version of SMORT which includes additional stability factor. This paper presents a new multipath routing protocol, stable and scalable on-demand routing for mobile ad hoc networks which improves the lifetime of the network and improves the performance.

The field that is the key issue of wire, wireless environment is security and many routing protocols are studied also at the ad-hoc network. In the mobile ad-hoc network which has no fixed base structure, the weakest point is security. This paper analyzed AODV protocol, which is a routing protocol, the important routing protocol in ad-hoc network, so that it can overcome the problem in security threats. It used the lightest and fastest message authentication code, so was able to design rather safer AODV routing protocol.

Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANET) comprises of self-organizing autonomous mobile nodes. MANETs are open and decentralized. Therefore they are vulnerable to malicious entities. MANETs are multi-hop wireless network where all nodes supportively maintain network connectivity without a centralized infrastructure. Since MANETs are infrastructure less and independent, the secure communication is the main issue. Therefore they are vulnerable to malicious entities. Here the location identity and traffic can be traced out by an outside observer. Anonymity means secure communications by hiding node identities and preventing traffic analysis attacks by outside observers. This paper proposes Position based Anonymous Routing Scheme in MANETs (PARS).Here the routing is based on Greedy Perimeter Stateless Routing Protocol. The objective is an anonymous routing protocol for the network. The proposed one is a zone based anonymous GPSR based protocol that can provide source, destination and route anonymity. Performance of the proposed system is compared with that of GPSR and AODV using Network Simulator. Index Terms: Anonymous routing, position-based routing, random forwarder, zone partition. I. Introduction Mobile Ad hoc Networks are collection of independent mobile nodes that can communicate by radio waves. It is an infrastructure less self-organizing network. The nodes that are in radio range can communicate by single hop or by multi hop with the help of intermediate nodes. The network is open and decentralized and fully distributed. So they are perfect choice for communication and information sharing. MANETs are susceptible to malicious entities that aim to alter and analyzed the traffic analysis by communication eaves dropping or attacking routing protocols. MANETs are characterized by their distributed operation, multi hop routing, dynamic topology and shared physical medium. Nodes in a MANET are independently free to move in any direction. Due to the lack of a centralized coordinator security is the major concern here. Wireless communication can endure interferences or malicious interceptions; whereas multi-hop communication assumes that each node will perform properly its functions to support network services. Further, self-organization increases the complexity of security management operations as access control, node authentication, secure routing and cryptographic key distribution. There is no fixed infrastructure and the topology is frequently changing due to node mobility or environmental changes. Therefore, it is very hard to maintain a stable and efficient end-to-end route in an ad-hoc network. Each node in MANET is energy constrained. There is verylimited physical security in MANET. The type of attacks can be Active attacks or Passive attacks. The common security issues are Passive attacks which include eaves dropping and information disclosure. Active attacks include Do Sand Data modification. There are other more specific problems with mobile ad hoc network such as vulnerability of channels and nodes, Byzantine black hole and Byzantine wormhole attack. The security issue also includes attacks that may inject erroneous routing information and diverting network traffic thus making routing inefficient. There are many methods to reduce the impact of these attacks, which include a secure routing using public and private key s to get a certification authority and use of digital signatures and prior it rust relationships. Routing is the process of communication from one node to the other host in a network. Routing is the process off or warding packet towards its destination using most efficient path. Routing efficiency is measured in terms of Number of hops, traffic, security, etc. Routing protocols in MANETs are divided as reactive proactive and hybrid. Reactive Protocol maintains the routes in on demand manner. In route discovery phase it floods the route request (RREQ) packets throughout the network. Dynamic source Routing (DSR), ad hoc on- demand distance vector routing (AODV) are some of the examples of reactive protocols. In proactive approach every node in the MANET continuously maintains the complete routing information of the entire network. This is accomplished by flooding network periodically with network status information. Global State Routing (GSR), Hierarchical State Routing (HSR) and Destination Sequenced Distance Vector Routing (DSDV) are some of the examples of proactive

Routing in wireless networks is inherently difficult since their network topologies are typically unstructured and unstable. Therefore, many routing protocols for ad-hoc networks and sensor networks revert to flooding to acquire routes to previously unknown destinations. However, such an approach does not scale to large networks, especially when nodes need to communicate with many different destinations. This paper advocates a novel approach, the scalable source routing (SSR) protocol. It combines overlay-like routing in a virtual network structure with source routing in the physical network structure. As a consequence, SSR can efficiently provide the routing semantics of a structured routing overlay, making it an efficient basis for the scalable implementation of fully decentralized applications. In T. Fuhrmann (2005) it has been demonstrated that SSR can almost entirely avoid flooding, thus leading to a both memory and message efficient routing mechanism for large unstructured networks. This paper extends SSR to unstable networks, i. e. networks with churn where nodes frequently join and leave, the latter potentially ungracefully

In Recent Years, on demand Multipath routing protocols have been key research area in mobile Adhoc networks. An Adhoc network is comprised of mobile host without any wired infrastructure support. Multiple Adhoc routing allows the establishment of multiple paths between a source and destination. The multipath routing protocol with load balancing provides a solution for the congestion network and increases its capacity. Various multipath routing protocols have been proposed. In this paper we discuss the wireless routing protocols for adhoc networks like DSR, AODV, LBAODV, AOMDV, and LBAOMDV & AODLB. Simulation result shows the performance of AODLB protocol is much better than any other protocol in terms of PDR End to End Delays, ABS, and TOH.

The field of Adhoc Network has gained an important art of the awareness of researchers and become very popular in last few years.Adhoc network can operate without fixed infrastructure and can survive rapid changes in the network topology.This paper presents a survey on the art of energy efficient routing protocols for Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET).Since the nodes in MANET are movable, the routing and power management become significant issue.In this paper, the performance comparisons of mobile ad hoc network's protocol with its quality of service factors has been considered.The main concentration of the paper is on hybrid routing protocols which is basically combination of proactive and reactive routing protocols.In this paper three different types of hybrid protocols are chosen for performance comparison on the basis of diverse simulation parameters.

Vehicular Ad-hoc Network (VANET) is a subclass of Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) which provides the safety measure and other different applications to the drivers of the vehicles. The goal of VANET is to fulfil the requirements of users on roadside area, which improves the safe and comfortable journey. Secure routing is the main issue in VANET. Dynamic topology and wireless networking makes the VANET vulnerable to numerous sorts of attacks. Wormhole is one of the extreme assaults in VANET. This type of attack disturbs the working of routing protocol such as Ad hoc On demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing protocol. The motivation of this research work is that by using proposed detection and prevention approach the VANET can be made more secure. The results show how the performance of AODV routing protocol is affected by wormhole. In this research paper the impact of wormhole attack is analysed in terms of throughput, packer delivery ratio, and end-to-end delay. An approach is also proposed to detect and prevent wormhole attack in VANET over a real map on different vehicle densities based on multipath concept.

For the dynamic topology and wireless channel features of mobile ad hoc networks, its security problem is always being a research focus. In the aspect of security routing protocol, the problem of how to enhance the security of mobile ad hoc networks was discussed in the paper. Based on the Ad Hoc networks structure and routing characters analysis, the requirements of Ad Hoc networks security routing protocol was brought forward. Then the insecure factors of current network routing protocol were analyzed in detail. To solve these insecure problems, corresponding solutions and material examples were proposed, meanwhile, an advanced strategy to optimizes the security route reconstruction was proposed.

Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs) are based on network technology where cars act as mobile nodes to form a communication network. In VANETs, routing protocols have a significance regarding the overall network performance since they determine the way of sending and receiving packets between mobile nodes. Most of the protocols proposed for VANETs are adapted from Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) routing protocols. However, due to the specific characteristics of VANETs, especially high mobility, and dynamic topology, the routing protocols in ad hoc networks do not adapt immediately to VANETs. Therefore, secure routing of Vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) against attacks, which are of various types, is still a challenging issue. This paper is going to present a synthesis of the most relevant protocols that have addressed the secure routing issue in VANETs. It also establishes a comparison regarding the offered features and the studied performance aspects through which it is notified that a security mechanism depends not only on the level of efficiency but also on the network constraints.

The unique characteristics of a mobile ad hoc network (MANET), such as dynamic topology, shared wireless medium and open peer-to-peer network architecture, pose various security challenges. This paper compares three routing protocols, DSDV, DSR, and AODV under security attack where two types of node misbehaviour have been investigated. Network performance is evaluated in terms of normalized throughput, routing overhead, normalized routing load, and average packet delay, when a percentage of nodes misbehave. Simulation results show that although the performance of all three routing protocols degrades, DSDV is the most robust routing protocol under security attacks. This reveals that a proactive routing protocol has the potential of excluding misbehaving nodes in advance and reducing the impact of security attack.

Routing protocol is the primary strategy to design any wireless network. In Mobile AdHoc Network many routing protocols are present for sending packets from source to destination. Routing protocols in Mobile AdHoc Networks (MANETs) are reactive routing protocols, proactive routing protocols, hybrid routing protocols. Performance analysis of different routing protocols is the major step before selecting the routing protocol. Routing protocols perform different under different traffic conditions in different environments. In this paper, the TCP and UDP based performance analysis is carried out in reactive routing protocols and proactive routing protocols with different packet size using NS2 simulator under different traffic conditions. The delay, throughput and packet delivery ratio are common measures parameters used for the comparison of performance of reactive protocols and proactive protocols.
